Description

Graphite Metallizing has introduced a series ofstainless steel pillow blocks fitted with self-lubricating GRAPHALLOY® bushings thatresist attack from water and water-soluble chemicals, do not require lubrication and arecorrosion-resistant. GRAPHALLOY® Stainless Steel Pillow Blocks are a key component of submergedphysical therapy and conditioning equipment used by professional sports teams andcollege athletic departments. The ability of GRAPHALLOY® bearings to providetrouble-free underwater operation without any lubrication has been a key factor in thesuccess of this type of equipment, including underwater treadmills.

GRAPHALLOY® is a graphite-metal alloy that has exceptional chemical, mechanicaland tribological properties that provide a constant, low coefficient of friction. As aresult, GRAPHALLOY® works where traditional bearing materials often fail. Inaddition to being self-lubricating, GRAPHALLOY® withstands high-temperatures upto 1000° F, performs well under cryogenic conditions, can survive dry running pumpsand maintains its integrity even when submerged in hostile liquids such as acids,alkalies, hydrocarbons, black liquor, and liquid gases.

GRAPHALLOY® wear components improve reliability under conditions such as lowspeed operation, frequent starts and stops and switchovers from standby to continuousrunning. FDA accepted grades are available for food applications.

GRAPHALLOY® products are available in standard designs including cylindricalbushings with or without grooves, single, double-flanged, split and metal backedbushings as well as pillow block and flange units. In addition, a high percentage of theproducts are produced to meet custom requirements.
